A trip back home

I woke up early. I’m heading home. I checked out around noon time, had lunch at goldilocks. Again, nakakain ako ng fave kong lumpiang ubod and beef caldereta. Complete na ang day ko haha. The bus station going to Tagaytay is just a few steps away. Puyat ako kagabi kaya nakatulog lang ako sa bus. Buti na lang konti lang ang passengers kaya di ko na kinandong (kinalong) ang bag ko. Bumaba ako ng Pala-Pala and tinawagan ang father ko para sunduin ako sa Trece. Hahaha shocked ang tatay ko upon hearing na nasa Pinas na ako, much worst, nasa Cavite na! After less than 30 mins., nadatnan ko na parents ko sa Trece. They thought I’m back for good. I’m so glad to see them ok.

I asked them na mamalengke muna sa plaza ng Indang. May available naman kasi disperas ng market day. Nakakatuwa kc we bought pechay baguio, baguio beans, pechay, sitaw, tinapa, kalabasa, talong, ampalaya, and okra and yet ang total price ay mas mura pa sa pang taxi ko papuntang E-Mart! Then umuwi na kami. As usual, shocked ang mga kapitbahay.

Sa terrace namin, merong 3 video games stations. At first di ko gusto kc it’ll make our house public plus I don’t see the need for my parents to have such business (if you may call it a business) but on the lighter side, mabuti na rin yun kc nalilibang ang parents ko. Dalawa nga lang naman sila sa haus so may nakikita silang mga batang naglalaro whole day. If ever magkaroon man ng emergency, may makakakita rin sa parents ko dahil laging may tao sa haus. Not bad.

Mejo tinatmad pa ako kaya it took me a while before bumangon ako sa bed. Past lunch time na yun then I had to prepare pa and finally decided to go to POEA to process my exit permit. It rained so hard while I’m in bus. Luckily tumigil naman sya nung pababa na ako haha. I was able to process my papers smoothly. It took me less than 10 mins lang inside POEA then I walked for a while inside Rob Galleria. Bakit ang bilis and how? Secret! It’s boring kaya I decided to go back to my hotel. Along the way, I was texting Jhepoy and told him na siguro yun na ang last time naming pagkikita ‘coz uuwi na ako sa ‘min and no plans of going to Manila.

This is my last night sa hotel pero it’s boring. I was supposed to meet someone kaso nagkasakit sya. I don’t want to spend the night alone, sana may makausap man lang ako. Nagloloko nman ang wifi dahil sa ulan, buti na lang nag text ang isang tropa pero may hangover pa sya kaya he asked his friend who’s near my place na bisitahin ako para di ako ma bore.

As expected, I woke up past lunch time, tamang-tama lang sa pagdating ni RM. Ang lakas na naman ng ulan outside kaya nakakatamad lumabas. I need charger kc my fone is low batt na but there’s no available charger in hotel. Tamang-tama ‘coz I craved for Jollibee haha kaya I asked RM to go to the nearest mall and buy me a nokia charger, palabok, chickenjoy, and burger steak haha. Yeah para sakin lang yun!

RM went home past 9PM. I was just online when I got a text message from Rhean. He asked if he can drop by with his cousin kc nakagalitan sya ng dad nya haha. So ayun, kwentuhan, coffee, yosi until past 3am again.

It’s still rainy but not as much as yesterday. I chatted with an old friend – MA-E. He works for Smart Communications. He told me he will get off at 2pm and will go to my hotel after. He arrived  around 4pm. Prior to that, nagkita kami ni Jojo, a friend I’ve met during my last vacation.

MA-E and I went to Gateway mall and bought some items. He had to buy clothes for tomorrow kc biglaan ang gimik namin and I asked him not to go home to get his stuffs. Nag dinner kami sa Dencio’s. I so love the beef and mushrooms, ensaladang mangga (green mangoes, tomatoes, onions and bagoong alamang) plus the kilawing tanigue! I really had a nice conversation with MA-E. Na miss ko yun kc the last time we had long talk was January this year pa. Although nagkaka chat kami once in a while.

Drank a bottle of SML while waiting for Arby – MA-E’s cousin and an old friend too. Arby works at a certain perfumery in ortigas and he’ll get off at 10:30PM so we decided to walk around and mejo nainip na kaya bumalik muna kami sa hotel at doon naghintay until he finally arrived past 11PM. We then decided to go to Decades, Tomas Morato. We enjoyed the music until past 3AM of Sunday. The three of us went back to hotel, nag coffee then after few minutes of rest, MA-E went straight to work, Arby went home and I took my rest.

Still rainy, just perfect to stay inside. Snug on your bed while being hugged by someone; Smoke when you feel like it; Coffee when you feel cold; and eat like it was your first time to eat real food! Awww this is so perfect! Perfect perfect perfect! I remember taking tapsilog as breakfast, beef bulalo for lunch and pizza for dinner.

RM had to go home. Just as agreed, ni-meet ko ang pinsan ng friend ko. I was surprised kc kakilala ko ang cousin nya – si Rhean. I can’t stay long kc I have to meet Jhepoy din. After an hour or so, I met Jhepoy in our usual meeting place. We went back to hotel kc naka uniform pa sya and he needs to change first. We then had dinner and went to punchline and laughed like I never did before. I was given a free ticket (good for 5) before we left. That night was a big revelation for Jhepoy. I believe you but I don’t know… I’m not happy anymore.
